Exodus 28:15-30 ▼

15 And thou shalt make the brestlap of iudgement with brodered worke: euen after the worke of the ephod thou shalt make it namely of golde, blewe silke, purple, scarlet, and whyte twined silke.

16 Foure square it shalbe and double, an hande bredth long, and an hande bredth brode.

17 And thou shalt fill it with foure rowes of stones: in the first rowe shalbe a Sardius, a Topas, and Smaragdus.

18 In the seconde rowe, a Rubi, Saphir, and Diamonde.

19 In the thirde a Lyncurius, an Achat, and an Ametyst.

20 In the fourth a Turcas, an Onyx, and a Iaspis: and they shalbe set in golde in their inclosers.

21 And the stones shalbe grauen, as signettes be grauen with the names of the children of Israel, euen with twelue names, euery one with his name accordyng to the twelue tribes.

22 And thou shalt make vpon the brestlap two fastenyng chaynes of pure golde and wreathen worke.

23 And thou shalt make likewise vpon the brestlap two ringes of golde, and put them on the edges of the brestlap.

24 And put the two wreathen chaynes of golde in the two ringes which are in the edges of the brestlap.

25 And the other two endes of the chaines thou shalt fasten in two close ouches, and put them vpon the shoulders of the ephod on the foreside of it.

26 And thou shalt yet make two ringes of golde, which thou shalt put in the two edges of the brestlap euen in the borders therof, towarde the inside of the ephod ouer agaynst it.

27 And yet two other ringes of gold thou shalt make, and put them on the two sides of ye Ephod beneath ouer agaynst the brestlap, alowe where the sides are ioyned together vpon the brodered gyrdle of the Ephod.

28 And they shall bynde the brestlap by his ringes, vnto ye ringes of the Ephod, with a lase of blewe silke, that it may lye close aboue the brodered gyrdle of the Ephod, and that the brestlap be not loosed from the Ephod.

29 And Aaron shall beare the names of the children of Israel in the brestlap of iudgement vpon his heart, when he goeth into the holy place, for a remembraunce before the Lorde alway.

30 And thou shalt put in the brestlap of iudgment the Urim & the Thummim, and they shalbe euen vpo Aarons heart whe he goeth in before the Lord: and Aaron shall beare the iudgement of the children of Israel vpon his heart before the Lorde alway.
